Hi,
I have a query about filing my ILR application.
My immigration history is below:
Visa type – Tier 1 (General)
Entry Clearance (Visa stamping date) - Oct 20, 2009
UK Entry – Dec 26, 2009 (67 days after visa stamped)
Current Visa Expiry (after extension) – Jan 16, 2015
Can I apply for ILR 28 days before Oct 20, 2014 (entry clearance date) taking advantage of the new rule which states:
“The period between entry clearance being issued and the applicant entering the UK may be counted toward the qualifying period, as long as it does not exceed 90 days. This can occur if the applicant is delayed travelling to the UK. The period of delay will not be counted as an absence if it does not exceed 90 days.”
Or would I have to wait till Dec 26, 2014 and apply for visa after I complete full 5 years stay in the UK ? I mean can the above rule apply to me as I have already been granted total visa which exceeds 5 years ?
Thanks a lot for your time.
Regards,
Vishal
